General notes
Safety is the first priority
The safety features in your vehicle are harmon
ised to provide you and your passengers with the
best possible protection in accident situations.
However, they can only be effective if you and
your passengers sit in the correct position and
adjust and use the safety equipment properly.
For these reasons, this chapter explains why
these safety features are so important, how they
can protect you, what you need to remember
when using them, and
how
you and your passen
gers can gain the most benefit from them. There
are also a number of important safety warnings
which you and your passengers should always ob
serve in order to minimise the risk of injury.
WARNING
- The information in this chapter is important
for the driver of the vehicle and all passen
gers.
The other chapters in this manual
(and,
where applicable, in the other litera
ture supplied with the vehicle) contain fur
ther important notes which you should read
and observe for your own safety and that of
your passengers.
- Ensure that the complete vehicle wallet is
always in the vehicle. This is especially im
portant when you lend or sell the vehicle to
others.

•
Make sure that all lights and turn signals are
working properly.
•
Check the tyre pressures.
•
Make sure that all windows are clean and give
good visibility to the outside.
•
Secure all luggage and other items carefully
•=>
page 272.
• Make sure that no objects can interfere with
the pedals.
•
Adjust the front seat, head restraint and mir
rors correctly.
• Applies to: adjustable head restraints: Make
sure that the front passenger's head restraint is
adjusted to the correct position.
• Applies to: adjustable head restraints: Make

•=>
page 267.
•
Sit in the correct position in your seat. Make
sure
that
your passengers are sitting in the cor
rect positions
^>page

•
Fasten your seat belt correctly. Make sure that
your passengers do the same
^page

What factors can impair your safety?
Safety on the road is directly related to
how
you
drive, and can also be affected by the passengers
in the vehicle.
• The driver is responsible for the safety of the
vehicle and all its occupants. If your ability to
drive is impaired in any way, you endanger
yourself and other road users
,=>^.
Therefore:
• Do not let yourself be distracted by passengers
or by using a mobile phone, etc.
•
Never drive when your driving ability is im
paired (by medication, alcohol, drugs, etc.).
• Obey all traffic regulations and speed limits
and always maintain a safe distance to the
vehi
cle in front.
•
Always adjust your speed to suit the
road,
traf
fic and weather conditions.
•
Take frequent breaks on long trips. Do not drive
for more than two hours without a stop.
•
If possible, avoid driving when you are tired or
stressed.

If this is not possible, try to adjust the
head restraint as near as possible to this
posi
tion.
•
Keep both feet in the footwell in front of the
seat.
•
Fasten your seat belt correctly
^>page
277.
In exceptional cases you can disable the front
passenger's airbag via the key-operated switch*
^>page
288.
For detailed information on how to adjust the
front passenger's seat, see
^page
58, Front
seats.
A WARNING
A passenger who is not sitting in the correct
position or who is not wearing a seat belt can
be fatally injured if the airbag is triggered.
- Adjust the front passenger's seat so there is
a distance of at least 25 cm between your
breastbone and the dash panel.
- Always keep your feet on the floor when the
vehicle is moving; never rest them on the in
strument panel, out of the window or on the
seat. If
you
sit in an incorrect position, you
increase your risk of injury in the event of
sudden braking or an accident. If the airbag
is triggered, you could sustain potentially
fatal injuries by sitting out of position.
- To reduce the risk of injury to the front pas
senger in the case of sudden braking or an
accident, the passenger should never travel
in a moving vehicle with the backrest re
clined.
The airbag system and seat belt can
only provide proper protection when the
backrest is in an upright position and the
passenger is wearing the seat belt in the
correct position. The further the backrest is
tilted back, the greater the risk of injury due
to incorrect positioning of the belt webbing
or
an incorrect sitting position.
- Always adjust the head restraints properly
for maximum protection.
Correct position for rear passengers
Rear seat passengers should sit upright with
both feet on the floor and wear their seat belts
properly whenever the vehicle is moving.
To reduce any risk of injury in the event of sudden
braking or an accident, passengers in the rear
seats must observe the following:
•
Before carrying passengers on the rear seats,
puLl
the head restraints on the occupied seats
all the way up
^>page
59.
• Keep both feet in the footwell in front of the
rear seat.
•
Fasten your seat belt correctly
^page
278.
•
Use appropriate child restraint systems for
chil
dren travelling in the vehicle
^>page
267.
/K
WARNING
Rear passengers sitting out of position can
suffer severe injuries.
- Always adjust the head restraints to the
fully raised position for maximum protec
tion.
- Seat belts only offer maximum protection
when the backrest is in an upright position
and the passengers are wearing the seat
belts properly. By not sitting upright, rear
passengers increase the risk of injury due to
incorrect positioning of the seat belt web
bing.
Correct adjustment of head restraints
Properly adjusted head restraints are an
impor
tant part of the vehicle's occupant protection
system.
They
can help to reduce the risk of inju
ries in most accident situations.

The head restraints must be adjusted properly to
provide maximum protection.
•
Adjust the front head restraints so that the top
of the head restraint is level with the top of
your head. If this is not possibLe, try to adjust
the head restraint as near as possibLe to this
position.
•
Before carrying passengers on the rear seats,
pull
the head restraints on the occupied seats
all the way up
^>page
59.
For more information on how to adjust the head
restraints, see
^page
58.
A WARNING
- Travelling with the head restraints removed
or incorrectly adjusted increases the risk of
severe injuries.
- Incorrectly adjusted head restraints can also
increase the risk of injury during sudden or
unexpected braking or other manoeuvres.
Examples of incorrect seating positions
Occupants can suffer
severe
or fatal injuries if
they sit in an incorrect position while the vehicle
is moving.
Seat belts can only provide maximum protection
if the belt webbing is positioned correctly. Sitting
out of position greatly reduces the effectiveness
of the seat belts and increases the risk of injury
since the belt webbing is not worn in the position
for which it is designed. The driver is responsible
for the safety of all vehicle occupants, especially
for children.
•
Never allow anyone to sit out of position while
the vehicle is moving
•=>
A..
The following list shows just some examples of
incorrect sitting positions which can be danger
ous to all occupants. The List is not complete, but
will help to make you aware of possible dangers
which can be avoided.
Therefore, whenever the vehicle is moving:
- Never stand up in the vehicle.
- Never stand on the seats.
- Never kneel on the seats.
- Never travel with the backrest reclined too far.
- Never lean against the dash panel.
- Never lie down on the rear seat.
- Never sit on the front edge of
a
seat.
- Never sit sideways.
- Never lean out of the window.
- Never put your feet out of the window.
- Never put your feet on the dash panel.
- Never put your feet on the seat cushion.
- Never ride in the footwell.
- Never travel on a seat without wearing the seat
belt.
- Never climb into the luggage compartment.
WARNING
Sitting out of position increases the risk of se
vere injuries.
- Sitting out of position exposes the occu
pants to potentially fatal injuries if, for in
stance, the airbags inflate and strike an oc
cupant who is not seated in one of the prop
er positions.
- Before starting a trip, sit in the correct
posi
tion and stay in this position as Long as the
vehicle is moving. Before every trip, make
sure all passengers are sitting in the correct
positions and remain correctly seated at all
times

Child seats
Safety notes for using child seats
To
reduce the risk of injury in the event of
an
ac
cident, children must always use child restraint
systems when travelling in the car.
Please note the information in this Owner's
Man
ual when installing and using child seats. Follow
the manufacturer's instructions and observe any
statutory requirements.
For safety reasons, we recommend that child
seats be installed on the rear seats. You should
only use a child seat on the front passenger seat
in exceptional circumstances. •
